Company Profile
As a subsidiary of Zhejiang Pfluon Technology Co. Ltd., Zhejiang Bio-PAEK Technology Co., Ltd. specializes in the R&D, manufacturing and sales of polymer biomaterials.
The Polymer Division of Pfluon has accumulated plenty of experience in chemical synthesis of PAEK, refining and purification, granulation and modification, injection molding and processing, profile processing, composite materials, application technology as well as other fields. On this basis, Bio-PAEK Technology has expanded the application of PAEK from industrial circle to medical biomaterials industry, thereby achieving the localization of medical biomaterials of PAEK .
Scientific Research Achievements
In 2019, Pfluon cooperated with Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Zhejiang University, Canwell MEDICAL Co., Ltd., Fudan University, Zhejiang University of Technology and Shanghai Jiao Tong University to jointly undertake the national key R&D projects of the Ministry of Science and Technology, i.e., Research and Development of Key Technologies for Mass Production of Medical PAEK Materials and Surface Biomimetic Modification Technology for Orthopedic Implants.
Therein, Pfluon is in charge of the sub-project Development of New Medical-grade PAEK Materials and Research on the Mass Production of PEEK. Four key technologies have been accomplished in this project, i.e., Precipitation and Granulation Technology in Polymeric Liquid Kettle, Key Technology of PEEK Purification, Preparation of PAEK with High Osteogenic Activity and Preparation of High-strength PAEK. Besides, it has passed nine tests of performance evaluation and biocompatibility evaluation (GB/T16886) in the standard specifications (YY0660-2008) of PEEK polymer for surgical implants. Currently, it is carrying out clinical trials of spinal fusion cage, and the project is scheduled to be accomplished in the first half of 2023.
